The NHS has started a nationwide campaign inviting 500,000 men who have been diagnosed with, or are living with, prostate cancer to take part in one of the world’s largest prostate cancer research programmesKnown as Prostate Progress, the campaign is led by the charity Prostate Cancer Research and supported by the NHS DigiTrials recruitment service. Prostate Progress hopes to improve the early detection, diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer while helping researchers better understand the long-term impact of the disease on patients’ lives. One of the key priorities of the programme is increasing participation from Black men, who face around twice the risk of developing prostate cancer compared with other groups. The government has also highlighted cancer research as a key priority within the National Cancer Plan for England, with a focus on expanding clinical trials and encouraging more patients to take part in research. Prostate Progress aims to accelerate the development of new diagnostic tests, improve treatment options and ensure future generations of men receive more personalised and effective prostate cancer care.
